Really funny to be sharing or posting this but hoping to get some insight and advice from others' experiences here.
I've finally met someone that I think is a good fit (p.s. I don't really believe in "the one" – I think a lot of successful relationships rely on continuous effort as opposed to be "destined).
She's got a successful career, is really conscientious and hard-working, is very attractive to me, but what I love is that she has a fun edge and is very consistent. We've gone on four dates and she's away at the moment but she's been taking the time to call and text. It feels like she is keen as well.
I had a wobble over the last few days, feeling I'm good enough for her.
I know it is an inner voice thing, or a momentary "overthink". On paper, I'm a decent catch. I'm a junior partner in a professional services firm, I've got a good academic background, I've done therapy, I volunteer, I think I'm kind and responsible, and I'm fit and active and have a great circle of friends.
So – technically, on paper – I know I'm a decent catch (obviously it depends on what the other person likes) but I'm having a confidence wobble wondering if I'm good enough for her.
Maybe it doesn't help that I'm in the middle of a job switch / job hunt (which has its ups and downs with rejections and open doors).
Has anyone experienced this and what has helped you calm your own nerves?
